Famous quotes containing the word sixth:

    The sixth age shifts
    Into the lean and slippered pantaloon,
    With spectacles on nose, and pouch on side,
    His youthful hose, well saved, a world too wide
    For his shrunk shank, and his big manly voice,
    Turning again toward childish treble, pipes
    And whistles in his sound.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
